ANOTHER WORLD RECORD FUTSAL MARATHON IS ON THE WAY!



IT'S been two years since Sporting Pathways and MAD Productions brought to the city of Birmingham the second of two unique Futsal events.
Why was it and its predecessor both unique? Because they were record-breakers!
In 2012, Salma Bi, a champion for women's sport, organised the first-ever Women’s 10-Hours Non-Stop Futsal Event at the Birmingham International Futsal Arena.
The game totaled over more than 100 goals, and its success convinced Salma to return a year later and attempt an even bigger record - the ‘Return of Revenge Tour’ - which saw women come together and compete in a 20-Hour Futsal World Record Marathon.
Now we are in 2015 and after introducing over 300 women to the sport of futsal, hosting eight other sports tournaments including cricket and dodgeball, as well as raising money for various charities, Salma has announced her latest plan - a women-only 30-Hours Futsal World Record Event which will take place on April 4 and 5, 2015.
This event will be the toughest to date and will require women from all over the country to compete and complete another world record.
The non-stop futsal marathon is scheduled to begin Saturday, April 4, at 12am and finish on Sunday, April 5, at 7pm.
Salma also represents the Great White Sharks, a futsal team which first made history as the first Asian team in Birmingham League. They won the Championship title last season.
Now the Sharks and friends collecting names for the forthcoming 30-Hour Futsal Marathon.
"This event has come back due to the high demand from women across Britain wanting to compete at a high level and break records," said Salma.
"We are now recruiting players and encourage women to register their teams ASAP to avoid disappointment."
The event is open to women over the age of 14 and registration fees are £50 per player.
As always this event will also be fundraising for a charitable cause.
This year's national Asian Cricket Award winner Salma and husband/head teacher Sohail Mughal wish to build a school for orphan children in Azad Kashmir, Pakistan.
The money raised will be to help build the Zain-Ul-Abideen Public School.
Salma went on to say: “We need unlimited players of all abilities and women that are set to make history as well as achieve their personal goals.
"We are also looking for businesses to either sponsor or set up stalls at the event and anyone interested should contact us direct”.
